“I hope there are three of them,” Perez said, hoping Red, White & Royal Blue might develop into a trilogy.

Unquestionably, Red, White & Royal Blue was successful; critical praise and popular enthusiasm greeted its release. Under direction by Matthew López, the star-studded cast of the picture includes Uma Thurman, Sarah Shahi, Stephen Fry, Clifton Collins Jr., and Rachel Hilson.
